With the start of free agency right around the corner, one lingering question for the Steelers remains: What is gonna happen with the Bud Dupree? The free-agent edge rusher burst onto the scene this year with 11.5 sacks and 4 forced fumbles in his fifth season. While this sort of production would be tough to lose, the underlying numbers show that a tag and trade would be the best option for the Steelers.
Prior to this past year, Dupree averaged 5 sacks per season. He had a career-high of 6 back in the 2017 season.
